After using the methods described below our minimize button remained the X.
Using your article on how determining whether we are using Service Portal Agent Chat or Virtual Agent we are using Service Portal Agent Chat. (I’ve just included the link for ref)
The method I have used is to go into Service Portal and select Service Portal ie sp .
I’ve gone down to the CSS Variables and entered :
.sp-ac-root button.sp-ac-btn.open:after {
content: "\f148"
}
From this article - https://www.servicenow.com/community/virtual-agent-nlu-articles/changing-the-virtual-agent-client-mi...
As this minus symbol is the exact result we are looking to achieve. Preferably with this option as we’d like to avoid making our own minus button image to use.
We’d also like to change the wording from Close Chat to Minimize Chat.
Thank you very much in advance I really appreciate hearing back from your other article. Your articles are very useful.

Hi there,
Just had a quick look. It looks like the behavior has changed in one of the recent releases. Using the browser inspect, I see that it's not .sp-ac-root button.sp-ac-btn.open:after anymore, but .sp-ac-root button.sp-ac-btn.open .icon-cross:before
Just tried with applying:
Result for me is:
Kind regards,

Hello @Mark Roethof
Thanks for the knowledge you are sharing with all.
I have tried the above things, it works well.
but now we need an "-" (Minus) or Down Arrow symbol.
i have tried this "content: "\f0d7";", it is showing as normal line only.
can you share the content code for "-" (Minus) or Down Arrow symbol.
Thanks
